Holy crap!  My other Blog cuencaresidency.blogspot.com about living in Cuenca had 715 hits yesterday alone!!!  I wonder why???
Today I was drafted into being the Event Coordinator again for Hearts Of Gold Foundation for their Christmas Gala in less than a month, December 4th....  between events the mind goes foggy on how  uch work is involved....  
Today we had a food tasting of what we can expect at the Gala and that was a real treat!  If they can replicate this food at the Gala, it will be a smashing success.  Believe me the food tastes even better than it looks in the photos below!
The HoG office girls, bless their souls, have done much of the spade work and, after our tasting, we had a meeting with several volunteers and have had some kind folks volunteer to be committee chairpersons.  In the four weeks ahead of us, everyone will be busy little beavers for sure.
You all have until Nov. 11 to get your early bird tickets and save a few dollars.  Please come out and have some fun and support a great cause.
Hope you enjoy the photos.  That was the day's excitement,   Cheers, Al
